Madden Cover: 2002

Marshall Faulk will always be remembered as one of the best running backs in NFL history, but there was a clear turning point in his career: The year he was the cover boy for Madden 2003. His 2000-2002 run was the second-most productive two-year span by any running back in the modern era, but that was the high mark of his career. Following those two awesome seasons, in which he averaged 2,168 yards from scrimmage and 23.5 touchdowns, Faulk had just 1,490 total yards and 10 touchdowns in 2003. Plagued by an ankle injury, he failed to break the 1,000-yard rushing mark for just the second time in his career. Turns out he would never surpass the 1,000-yard barrier again.
